Crunchy, colourful and glossed in a sticky sweet chilli dressing, this fresh Noodle Salad is as satisfying to make as it is to eat. Children practise the claw grip to slice and chop, then grate, scatter and season their way to a bright, wholesome bowl. Then use the recipe to learn all about composting: those peelings and offcuts are a simple, hands-on way to see how the scraps from their bowl can feed the soil rather than the bin.
